Most investors are still casting doubts onto the timing of implementation of these policies. This has caused some rallies in the US treasuries. Though the US stock markets are still supported mainly by sound US corporate earnings announcements, there is a risk of overvaluation and prices could reverse if Donald Trump failed to deliver his promised policies. As a result, there will be continuing fund flows into the emerging markets assets and currencies. In the meantime, the recent release of May FOMC minutes downplayed the weak US Q1 GDP print and the soft March inflation data as transitory and indicated that a 25 bps hike is underway for the upcoming FOMC meeting. However, markets have fully priced-in the hike so far. The Fed has again reaffirmed its accommodative stance as in being slow and gradual in the policy rate tightening policies going forward. This has provided strong support for the US treasuries and emerging market assets and currencies. The talk on shrinking the Fed’s US4.5 trillion worth of balance sheet has provided little sell-off to the market as the plan would likely involve very slowly increasing caps on monthly balance sheet run-offs. Malaysia has been the net recipient of fund flows since April. Foreign appetite for our local government bond remains broadly positive, mainly driven by an expectation of MYR appreciation and favourable upcoming general election results. For example, the foreign holdings in MGS climbed by RM5.72b to RM141.6b in Apr 2017 to 39.7% of total outstanding MGS holdings.
